| Summary: | Jakarta Provincial Government promotes public transportation modes and tries to
make people leave their private transportations in order to reduce traffic congestion.
However, more people still use their private vehicles every year. While public
transportation development in Jakarta has been slow, mass transportation
integration and the completion of MRT Jakarta could be the turning point.
Accessibility is essential to develop good public transportation. Hence, it is a crucial
to look into what encourage and discourage people from using public transportation
from the social dimension of accessibility. Factors that affect and relate to
accessibility, which influence people's decision to choose public transportation,
were analyzed and identified, based on individual and transport components for
accessibility. The factors answered the primary research question of this paper,
'What are the barriers and opportunities to increase public transportation usage in
Jakarta?'. Understanding these will help create a future planning and policy
approach that can encourage increase in usage of public transportation. This
research used data collection from questionnaires as well as documents from open
resources and articles about public transportation modes in Jakarta. These data were
processed to find barriers and opportunities to improving accessibility with a
qualitative descriptive approach. From the research is founded that barriers in
developing a better public transportation came from the inconsistency in developing
the infrastructure that would encourage the use of public transportation. However,
the opportunities founded is that people have interests in using a good and
comfortable public transportation |
